How do we support learners who struggle with written training materials?

A learner may need help with unfamiliar terms, a dense page, language or the way instructions are presented. Identify the barrier before selecting a solution. Do not assume all learners benefit from the same alternative or need their training simplified in the same way.

Present the task in manageable steps

Approved spoken explanations, demonstrations and clear visual examples can sit alongside written references. Explain symbols and technical vocabulary. Check whether important information can be revisited and whether trainers have an appropriate way to answer questions.

Test alternatives with the audience

Video or VR might provide another route into a particular task, but the learner should also have an option that does not depend on headset use. High5VR can discuss accessible presentation within a defined scope. Teaching and practical support remain part of the wider programme.
